Abstract

Despite its utility as an oxygen-atom transfer reagent for transition metals, nitrous oxide (N <subscript>2</subscript> O) is a notoriously poor ligand, and its coordination chemistry has been limited to a few terminal, end-on κ <superscript>1</superscript> - N complexes. Here, the synthesis of a mononuclear cobalt complex possessing a side-on-bound N <subscript>2</subscript> O molecule is reported. Structural characterization, IR spectroscopy, and DFT calculations support an η <superscript>2</superscript> - N,N binding mode for binding of N <subscript>2</subscript> O to the cobalt center.
